Abstract
Various embodiments of the present invention provide systems and method for monitoring movement in relation to locations about which data is available from one or more sources.
Claims20
A method for alerting when a target is delaying travel, the method comprising:
- receiving data from a monitor device associated with an individual, wherein the monitor device is operable to:
- identify locations of the individual along a path of movement of the individual, and
- provide corresponding location information as the data;
- identifying a delay along the path traveled by the individual and a location of the delay based at least in part upon the location information, wherein the location of the delay is at an area where travel is not prohibited for the individual;
- receiving information from one or more databases that identifies at least one attribute corresponding to the location that the individual is not moving;
- and
- generating a message based at least in part on the information from the one or more databases.

A method for identifying when a target is delaying travel, the method comprising:
- based upon information received from a monitor device, determining a course of movement in an allowed area of travel for an individual associated with the monitor device;
- determining a period of time that the individual is not moving along the course of movement;
- identifying a location where the period of time that the individual is not moving occurs;
- receiving information from one or more databases, wherein the information from the one or more databases identifies at least one attribute corresponding to the location;
- analyzing the information from the one or more databases;
- and
- issuing a message based at least in part on the analysis of the information from the one or more databases.
4 more elements
A monitoring system, the monitoring system comprising:
- a monitor device associated with an individual, wherein the monitor device is operable to:
- provide multiple instances of location information indicating a location of the monitor device, and
- provide a subset of or a derivative of the location information via a wireless transmitter to a recipient device;
- a computer processing device associated with a computer readable medium, wherein the computer readable medium includes instructions executable by the computer processing device to:
- identify a delay along the path traveled by the individual and a location of the delay based at least in part upon the location information, wherein the location of the delay is at an area where travel by the individual is not prohibited;
- and
- generate a message based at least in part on the identified delay.
